Beautiful, and placid , this 1 1/2" pendant is double sided and encases the two different images in soldered glass. I use great Silvergleem, lead free solder. On one side this piece shows a piece of old book page in which I drew a little birdie standing on a fantasy plant. A couple of fabric petals face him, calm and rosy. The other side is a painted piece of book page in which i drew with pencil another invented plant, in between the words is the name of it. find it! on top of it I soldered a loop for dangling. I really liked making this little thing it exudes charm and calm

$40.00
Medicine bottle that now is an art canvas with dimension and many details , A scallop shell made a suitable bonnet , I soldered it and painted it. added it to the mouth of the bottle with some wire and beads swirls, and used a mold I made myself of old jewelry to make the face with paste for modeling, painted it, and became her thoughtful head.
A couple of milagro arms i got in Mexico, are her most important extremities here, She wears a filigree pendant and her body is dressed with vintage painted lace and another modeled face keeping vigil at her feet.. Veins of glitter reaching around her on both sides make her shine along the darkness of the bottle.
Medecine lady came from a medicine bottle my son had to finish to recover. Now she claims it.

U FAIRY, THE DANCER.. ONE OF A KIND MOVABLE PAPER DOLL EXTRAORDINAIRE

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 16:38:24 -0500

$35.00
A brand new development at Urbangipsy, This 13" tall cardboard, doll , is quite a work, she is printed on paper which has been added on to hard card stock board, and hand painted. I constructed a skirt/body of brown sack paper, filled it up with filling and sown it together so it is a quasi 3-d form in the skirt . Then is all adorned with ribbon hand painted with crayons, and sweet faux pearls sitting on top of each ribbon, the mid-drift is jointed with a big letter brad, that allows movement. she is a dancer after all. In her hand she holdsup high a white bird with delicate feathers flowing in the air. I mmade her metal painted wings that in the back allows you to hang her anywhere you wish. A vintage lace circle forms a halo in her head.
She wears golden slippers.
And her dream of dancing on forever goes on.

THE CHOCOLATE GUARDIAN FAIRY. MOVABLE BIG PAPER DOLL

$45.00
From Urbangipsy's new line of cardboard movable dolls, this 17 inches tall sturdy and one of a kind fairy is heirloom material for sure. No templates used, as in everything from Urbangipsy, all parts are freehand designed just for her. Her arms are wrapped with my mostest favoritist chocolate in the whole world.The arms are movable. her cuffs have chocolate lace with two chocolate drops covered with raspberry glitter as buttons. I actually created the chocolate pieces that surrounds the bottom of her whole dress and also made it into a scrumptious belt. In her hands she is holding a chocolate pastille. She is got so much work I could spend quite a while making you drool for chocolate after I'm done, since she is a fairy she has large old leaves as wings and tulle covering her neck, , flowers neck line and a nice necklace, a bodice drawn with glitter and black lace underneath. In the back flower petals adorn her big wings and a velvet rossetta with pearls and ribbon . Her brown paper skirt has been slooowly stamped and embossed with a very roccocco leaves scroll and stuffed with fill so is full. Too many details to list. She can be hanging from the golden ribbon on her head covered by the letter "C", for chocolate of course.
Now, let's get some chocolate please!!!

A beautiful heirloom to treasure.
She doesn't seem melancholic to me. 7 1/2" long by 4 1/2" this collage is done over thin wood ready to hang or repose against something.
Be , just no more words, time for action, " The butterflies are not in my stomach" she thinks around herself. That anticipation before the leap, that is what she is showing in her face. Painted with watercolor and pencil over printed page. She is a little intriguing creature of habit lulling around when no one looks. Love her
